Who was advocating for leaving your nose out? We used to make fun of the morons we saw doing that. Frankly, I’m sad masks aren’t still more of a thing. I don’t want to wear one all the time, but if you’re sick and need to be in a public pla

I actually think this isn’t really an “at home” toy. A couple of these in an elementary classroom or a library or even a community maker space, make a lot of sense, since the building material is basically free.

Spoken like someone who either doesn’t have kids, or at least has easier ones than mine. You think you’re just going to explain to a four year old the rules about ice cream and they’ll just be like “you’re right daddy. I forgot we had ice c

Funny, we have the opposite problem. Ice cream trucks in my area have become way too aggressive. I would give anything to ban them from our neighborhood, as they come through within the first hour after school getting out, causing daily arg

I would recommend trying sunvox if you want to dip into trackers. It is free on desktop and cheap on mobile and runs on most platforms. In fact, I have a 2012 iPad that runs it fine. Trackers are just a different way of entering midi data a

If the space is sealed, how would they get into the walls?

Or an Eink phone/tablet and a Bluetooth keyboard.

99% is far overstating it. SF is a wide genre with pretty much every other genre inside it. At this point it’s infiltrated popular culture; just think how many movies and shows are not billed as SF but contain SF ideas or settings.

Where am I doing that?

by schwartzworld 1y ago
No tests, no version control, no library support. Pass for me.

There was a lot less tv in the 80s. If you didn’t have cable, then you just had a handful of channels. I didn’t watch Joy of Painting, but it was pretty hard not to notice the painting Afro guy when flipping through the extremely limited nu

I don’t think that’s the full answer. Post Hog is internet parlance for “upload a picture of your penis”. Someone had a sense of humor when they picked that name.

You sound so salty about it. My understanding was that he couldn’t use the name Prince for a while for legal reasons. The logo was a clever trick. He couldn’t call himself Prince. He could have done a full name change, but would have lost a

> but because it's gone off and written a 2,000 lines of code That’s a you problem, not an AI problem. You have to give it small tasks broken down the same way you would break them down.

More than that, what are they actually trying to enforce? In the USA it’s excise tax. The TTB cannot possibly go after home distillers making quantities that you’d make with a stovetop still. It’s like $2.70 per gallon for small producers.

You could grin menacingly. Or nervously. Or reluctantly.

by schwartzworld 1y ago
I think you’d struggle to find much evidence of home distillers getting busted. If you’re not selling the stuff, you’re probably not the TTBs concern.

It’s all about keeping people off-center while they plunder the economy. Everybody is so focused on the chaos they cant keep track. It’s not insane, it’s fucking genius.

You don’t have to use all that other stuff. React works best if you prioritize function composition. So much of the ecosystem is there to support the people that don’t know what composition is.

I use a few strategies, but it's mostly the same as if I was mentoring a junior. A lot of my job already involved breaking up big features into small tickets. If the tasks are small enough, juniors and LLMs have an easier time implemen

For me it's like having a junior developer work under me who knows APIs inside and out, but has no common sense about architecture. I like that I delegate tasks to them so that my brain can be free for other problems, but it makes my j

Sounds right, and even with the clinical settings, you need to experiment. It took me a year of obsessing over my OSCAR data to dial it in.

The product doesn’t sound bad but shipping a new framework under the old name is a bad idea. Remember when AngularJs became Angular?

That was my thought. Sqlite3+datasets works great for this

You’re right, memo is a lazy thing to do and often fails to optimize. At best it reduces rerenders but doesn’t speed up slow behavior.

Thats the 1-sentence summary of FP, but there’s a lot more to it. Immutable data structures are part of it, although less important because of how props are scoped. Composition, my friend. That’s the key. If your whole tree is rerendering w

by schwartzworld 1y ago
React can be very performant with little optimization if you apply FP principals to it, which makes sense since it was built with the goal of using FP to do frontend work. If your whole tree is recalculating on every mousemove event, that i
